It seems nobody can withstand the curse that anybody who stands with #TheFelonyGuy ends up screwed over

Facing off against an unfriendly network is not nearly as difficult as facing off against an authoritarian like Putin and I’d expect any person running for the Presidency should be able to handle it without whining about how unfair the interviewers are. #TheFelonyGuy bitches about how he got such a raw deal out of ABC, imagine him negotiating with Xi Jinping. He gives away our security to insure his wealth

These numbers reflect millions of men and women & show, even in the worst cohort, that there are many men who don’t want #TheFelonyGuy.
Shaming all men for the opinions of the majority is easy, but it’s the very essence of prejudice. I see women at his rallies, they revel in being his supporters.
Both sexes contain people who support him, convinced he is standing up for them.
Instead of shaming them, it behooves us to communicate to them why their choice is so self destructive.

Making #TheFelonyGuy into a martyr would extend the lunacy of MAGA for dozens of years. Given their climate indifference, it could end up destroying life on this planet.

We need a landslide victory to discredit his popularity and then his lifetime spent in jail for the crimes he has committed to discourage this foolishness in the future.

It used to be respected as the “paper of record”, but it’s been at least two years now that editorial opinion has shaped the perspective of news reporting and this paper has lost its reputation, its clarity and its relevance.
It stood up to #TheFelonyGuy at first, but the money of the owners of conservative media is valued above reporting the news.

I like to imagine this judge treating #TheFelonyGuy like this, putting him in jail for falling asleep in the courtroom, but my gut is telling me he’d be more of the sycophantic Aileen Cannon style of authority, eager to please a rich old white guy.

Judge treats 15 y/o girl on a field trip like a criminal for falling asleep

Opinion | I’m a judge. Here’s why the viral video of a teenager’s humiliation has me furious. — MSNBC

Detroit Judge Kenneth King seemed more interested in asserting his dominance over this young person than in fostering an environment of learning and respect.

Yes, not single-handedly, but I do believe her actions contributed to an outcome where Hillary lost.

The third party candidates aren’t going to win until ranked choice voting makes them possible. Stein is carrying on to obscure the will of the people. In 2016, third party voters gave us the end result of #TheFelonyGuy. Stein offends me because she doesn’t care if she’s used as a pawn by Putin.

I have friends that are Pagan, you are insulting them, hopefully unintentionally. They are good people, whose belief system is the antitheses of #TheFelonyGuy who is not respectful of the Earth or any of its inhabitants (except a few wealthy fascists). I respect other people’s religious beliefs even though I think they’re wrong, as long as they’re not forcing them on me and not hurting children I let them be, and do not see any point in maligning them.

No, don’t call him a pagan felon, there’s no need to disrespect that belief system just because #TheFelonyGuy is antisemitic. He is the antithesis of moral and a felon, no need to smear good honest pagans with his filth

TIL that CNN is too biased to ever enter my news feed again, so I’ve blocked it. The article linked below is supposedly fact checking the claims made at the DNC & conflates “missing context” with not factual and misses context itself.

When #TheFelonyGuy abdicated responsibility for protecting the USA from the ravages of COVID, among the disasters that unfolded were lost jobs. When CNN notes that this loss is missing context, they are missing the reason why tfg is so unsuitable as a leader.

Like Bush with Katrina, a crisis unfolded & it was apparent the POTUS wasn’t competent.

Those job losses are part of his inept response, not to mention over 350,000 deaths of our fellow citizens.

When Obama faced the threat from Ebola during his presidency, he didn’t hide from the responsibility & took a lot of GOP & Fox News crap for handling a crisis. CNN is worse than Fox, imo, for pretending to be unbiased but undermining actual facts.
